About
Hi, I'm Shauna!
I'm glad you're here. As someone who has made the journey from single, career-focused, and shy, to being happily married to the man of my dreams, my mission is to help others find lasting love!
Dating and relationships are harder today than ever before. Men have slipped far into their feminine energies and women are living in their masculine. The effect is that women are frustrated with passive men who don't step up and pursue; men's spirits are broken from having their attempts to give, protect, and cherish be met with hostility and rejection.
Using my background in counselling, I want to help sort out this mess!
In terms of education, I have a Master's degree from the University of British Columbia and additional training in counselling psychology. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor in BC.
I have completed Level 1 training with Dr. Pat Allen (renowned therapist and author of "Getting To I Do") in Transactional Analysis and Androgynous Semantic Realignment. Translation: help women and men to come back into balance by speaking in alignment with their feminine and masculine energies. Women feel cherished and men feel respected! If you are familiar with Dr. Allen's work, you can expect me to help you to put some of her incredibly potent ideas into practice!
Other significant influences include John Gray, Alison Armstrong, and the Gottman Institute. Attachment Theory is the primary framework that I use to understand and discuss relationship dynamics more broadly.
With me as your coach, you'll have someone who is in your corner offering strategies so effective they will boggle your mind! Truly the closest thing you can get to a real-world love potion ;)
Being trained as a counsellor, I will always take an empathic, non-judgmental stance as I understand your needs and situation. I know that people today are isolated; they are desperate for real, meaningful connection. Healthy intimate partnerships are crucial for people to feel known, loved, and safe. By helping my clients find and grow such relationships, I hope to contribute to individual and societal healing.
If you want to learn more about my approach, style, or knowledge, I encourage you to download my free guide or to check out my books on Amazon.
Or of course—contact me! I would love to hear from you. It is an honour for me to hear the stories and dreams of my clients, to help them find love (with the right partner!), get engaged, get married, and have families of their own.
When I'm not coaching, I'm raising my baby boy! He is the newest and greatest joy in my and my husband's life. Yoga, sunshine, and sloths are other things that make my heart sing.
